Prelims - Delivering Energy for Development

Abstract

Praise for this book 'Delivering Energy for Development speaks directly to the "bottom up" energy access solutions that are needed in developing countries to get cleaner, more affordable and safer energy services to people. At the heart of this are diverse energy service delivery models that require a new generation of energy entrepreneurs, supportive government policies and an enabling framework including access to consumer financing to be successful. Practical Action has made a major contribution by correctly portraying people in these markets as consumers rather than beneficiaries.
